Yay! February is finally here! January was such a long month and if I can just make it through this short month I see warmer, sunnier days in my future. There are good things to look forward to and I’m not filled with the worry and anxiety of delivering my first baby. We are going to have a visit with Sarah and her children, Olivia and Henry this week. There is Valentine’s Day, my favorite holiday, and my two favorite people, Scott and Evelyn, have their birthdays this month. And don’t forget tomorrow is Groundhogs Day!
Speaking of Valentine’s Day, I thought I would do a little countdown and try to put up my favorite things for the holiday everyday (not sure if this will happen, at least a couple times a week). Today I have some cards that you could send to your sweetest.
1. love is in the air 2. sugar pie 3. i heart you 4. friggin’ 5. be mine 6. venn diagram 7. finger prints 8. be mine bright 9. love
These are all letterpress cards. I ADORE letterpress. My heart starts to flutter a little and my palms start to sweat when I see any piece of letterpress, that’s how much I love it. I will save any tag or card that is letterpressed and run my fingers over the relief. I’m always on the look out for an antique tabletop press but they are hard to come across in working condition. Someday…
I love getting valentines. When Scott and I were still in high school together he put cute valentines in my locker during classes so I would find it when I went to switch books for the next class. I still remember decorating shoeboxes and cereal boxes with wrapping paper and doily hearts for grade school parties. I bought Evelyn a little mailbox to put her valentines in and I hope she enjoys the holiday as much as I do.
